Solidarity with @NALC_National who are fighting a brutal attempt to privatize their jobs! We rely on them every day, they are part of our communities. From New Haven CT yesterday where attendees of a Trans Day of Visibility rally and a Letter Carriers' Union rally joined forces.
When trans people and postal workers come together!

Homophobia, transphobia, and other forms of bigotry are just tools of the bosses to divide workers and bust our unions. Solidarity is stronger, and is necessary to make real gains! When we stand up for our coworkers under attack, it sends the message that our union is strong.
🚨 Amazon hired a union buster to come into DBK4 and harass us - and now he attacked one of our coworkers with a homophobic slur. We want Juan Carlos Cervantes and the rest of the union busters out of the warehouse!

Happy #NationalComingOutDay! Everyone has their own preference of how out they are, who they're out to, etc. It should be up to the individual to decide if/how to express it--no one should be forced out. But coming out on one's own can be empowering, a step to self realization.
Congratulations SAGE workers on winning your union! What a way to cap off pride month! Wishing you a strong and empowering contract! If you need support, say the word--the Teamsters have your back!
WE WON OUR UNION! It’s official: the SAGE Workers Union is heading to the bargaining table with management for our first union contract, and we could not be more excited.
